Chapter Ninety-Seven: Don't Attack Him with the Death of the King

Shengjing, snow! This is the first snow in early winter, and it is a heavy snowfall, and it is also the coldest snow for the Jin people. Because they lost their leader, Huang Taiji.

Heavy snow soon covered the walls and alleys of Shengjing, as if it had entered a harsh winter in an instant. The streets and alleys of the capital are full of white silk, all of which are full of sorrow.

In the emperor's bedroom, Huang Taiji lay quietly, looking very peaceful. Only the wrinkles on his brow can be seen that this man can't let go of the knot.

The young Xiaozhuang sat on the edge of the bed, her expression was unusually calm, her tears seemed to dry up at the moment of life and death last night, and she looked at Huang Taiji who seemed to be asleep at this moment, silent.

In Xiaozhuang's arms, the young Fulin looked at Huang Ama, and the nurses coaxed him to say that Huang Ama was just asleep. Only Hyozhuang and Dolgon did not shy away from telling him that Emperor Ama had died, and that he had gone to heaven to pray for blessings. Fu Lin was aggressively pulling the corner of Huang Taijidi's clothes. This seven-year-old child, the proud son of the sky, the descendant of the dragon, with many princes and ministers crawling behind him, what can he do? He seemed to be asking Huang Amma, who had closed his eyes.

"Nurse, let's take the ...... first Take Baylor away and prepare for the burial. Dolgon stood in the rumors and said lightly. With a sound of Baylor, Dorgon seemed to have thought for a long time. Hyojoon raised his head slightly and glanced at Dolgon. Dolgon's face was expressionless, "You go down first, I'll take care of the matter here." Dolgon said, motioning for the two palace maids to help Xiaozhuang away. Xiaozhuang nodded, and when he stood up, he said softly, "Wait for the thirteenth sister." With that, Xiaozhuang hid his face and walked out of Huang Taiji's bedroom. Dorgon nodded.

"Fourteenth Master?" Several ministers asked.

"Wait a little longer, Sister Thirteen. She should be almost there. Dolgon tilted his head and took a deep breath and said quietly.

"Wow!"

The snow in Shengjing suddenly fell, and a white horse shuttled through the snow, so fast that it was difficult to distinguish the appearance of the horse. Ning Er rushed into the palace and ran straight towards the emperor's bedroom, shedding tears as she ran, which was a rare cry for Ning Er. As soon as he entered the dormitory, he fell beside Huang Taiji's bed, and he couldn't cry anymore with only one sentence of "Ninth Brother ......". After a while, Dolgon came over and patted Ning'er on the back and sighed, "Don't disturb Brother Jiu on the road." As he spoke, he motioned to the two palace maids to help Ning'er away, but Ning'er pulled Huang Taiji's bed edge and refused to let go.

"Pull it down!" Dorgon glared at the eunuchs beside him. Several people dragged Ning Er down together.

"Brother Jiu......!" Ning'er cried!

"Let's get started." Dorgon gestured to several of his ministers. Start the burial, ceremonies, state funeral!

Master Zhang Daoshi presided over the ceremony, and he said to Dolgon, "When the first emperor was in power, his ambition was in the Central Plains, but now his ambition has not been rewarded, and he can only look at it by walking in the south direction." ”

"As the master said, he went to the south gate for funeral. How far is it appropriate? ”

"The first emperor had great ambitions, and it would be best if he could go to the edge of the border. This is the number of fates. ”

"No!" Dorgon made a quick decision.

As soon as Dorgon said this, everyone whispered.

The dead are great, let alone the emperor? Many people saw Dolgon's strength and suspected that before the bones of the first emperor were cold, Dolgon began to be restless!

Fu Lin was dressed in white silk, raised his head and asked Xiaozhuang, "Queen Mother, why didn't the fourteenth uncle let Huang Ama go to a distant place?" ”

Fu Lin's innocent words made everyone look over, Xiaozhuang was a little overwhelmed, she didn't expect Fu Lin to suddenly ask such a question, she glanced at Dolgon, squatted down and stroked Fu Lin's little face, and said with tears in her eyes, "It's snowing, Huang Ama is walking hard." ”

Xiaozhuang's words made the palace maids around them cry one after another, and several little eunuchs couldn't hide their sadness and cried delicately.

Seeing this, Dorgon gritted his teeth and closed his eyes.

"Fourteenth Master?" Daoist Zhang asked.

"Let's go! Jinzhou! Dorgon almost snapped out those three words. Because at present, the Qing army's sphere of influence is farthest to Jinzhou. However, he knew the consequences of such a rash action, which is why he said what he had just said.

The mourning music sounded again, and the funeral procession hit the road again, heading towards a distance that Huang Taiji could not reach during his lifetime. Heavy snow was falling, and the long snow white declared that it was an emperor's funeral.

"Handsome! Huang Taiji died. The Qing court grieved the whole country, and many city defenses had no time to take care of it, ...... you looked at Jinzhou? "Ning Yuan, Wu Sangui's station, a deputy general admonished Wu Sangui.

Wu Sangui was wrapped in a mink coat, and I was in the handsome position, smoking a big pipe, pondering while listening, and nodded, "Well, what General Liu said is extremely true." Jinzhou is an important pass, my father-in-law gave it to the Qing court, and the handsome man was really unwilling. It would be nice if General Hu Wei was here, but it's a pity that he is now trapped in Shanhaiguan, hey......"

"Enlightened handsome. Although the last general is not as brave as General Hu Wei, he has also experienced countless battles large and small, and he thinks that this Jinzhou is still not a problem! The last general has the courage to beg the commander to give an order, so that the last general can do his part for the commander! Liu Tam, Vice General Liu, recommended himself and was full of confidence.

"Well, although you don't have the same experience as Hu Wei, but since ancient times, heroes have been teenagers, and this courage is really rare. Good! This commander ordered you to lead 5,000 soldiers and horses to attack Jinzhou and take Jinzhou back for me! Wu Sangui was overjoyed when he saw that someone was willing to go into battle, and gave an order.

"The last general commands!" Liu Tam said, eager to try.

"Wait." Liu Tam was about to walk out of the camp when Wu Sangui shouted.

"What else does the marshal command?"

"Remember. Don't hurt the handsome old man. Wu Sangui was talking about Hong Chengchou who surrendered to the Qing army.

"The last general understands!"

Liu Tam led 5,000 elite soldiers to march into Jinzhou in the snow, in a vain attempt to take advantage of the air defense of Jinzhou City to recapture Jinzhou.

Zhu Qing rushed back to Shanhaiguan in the early morning, read the letter left by Ning Er, did not have a good rest, and rode out of the customs on a wind-chasing horse.

"Big brother!"

"General!"

"Brother Qinglong!"

No matter how many people were holding behind him, Zhu Qing did not hesitate for a moment.

"Green Dragon! I'm leaving. I don't know if we'll be able to meet again, and if so, in what way? You and I are destined to be people on different paths. Thank you for saving me, and maybe, I will never say such a thing to anyone again. Brother Jiu left. I know a lot of things are going to happen next, and it's not something I can control. Maybe I'll change and become the person you don't know. However, I have one thing to ask for, and I hope that Brother Jiu can finish the last journey quietly. Ning'er. ”

This is the letter that Ning Er left to Zhu Qing, short, but full of all kinds of words. Perhaps, this is the reason why Zhu Qing quickly whipped out of the customs.

When the funeral procession was about to arrive in Jinzhou, the Jinzhou Qing soldiers suddenly came to report, "Report the Fourteenth Master!" Jinzhou has found an enemy! ”

"What?"

"Wu Sangui's men are leading 5,000 elite soldiers to attack Jinzhou. It is estimated that the city has been attacked by this time! ”

When the people heard this, they were shocked. Xiaozhuang knelt in front of Huang Taiji's coffin with the frightened Fulin in his arms and prayed, "Fulin is still young!" You must bless him from accidents! Hyozhuang said, glancing up at Dolgon, the only man she could trust now.

Dolgon looked at Empress Xiaozhuang and shouted, "Guard, escort the coffin back to the palace!" ”

"Wow!" A thousand guards took off their hijabs, showed their swords, and escorted the coffin of Huang Taiji and his entourage back.

"Fourteenth Master, it seems that the first emperor does not have the courage to go forward. I don't think anyone has that kind of courage except for the fourteenth master! Daoist Zhang suddenly muttered in Dorgon's ear, and as he spoke, he glanced at Xiaozhuang and Fulin, how helpless this pair of orphans and widows were now.

Dolgon gritted his teeth and didn't speak, he glanced at Hyozhuang. Daoist Zhang wanted to say something more, "Smack!" Dorgon slapped his palm!

"Slaves should die, slaves should die!" Daoist Zhang hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy.

"Send the first emperor away, if I hear this kind of thing again, don't blame me for being rude!" Dolgon said lightly, in fact, his heart is fierce at this moment, it can be said that Daoist Zhang's words have penetrated every nerve of him. I don't know what made him suppress.

"Fourteenth elder brother." Ning'er screamed.

"You send the queen back and Fu Lin back, and I'll go to Jinzhou to have a look." Dolgon said to Ning'er that for now, only Ning'er could let him get back to his original intention.

"Be careful!" Ning'er nodded.

"Report! Discover Jinyiwei! "Suddenly, a man came to report.

"What? Jinyiwei is also here? How many murderers? For the first time, Dolgon's face looked nervous.

"There is only one person, it is the Shanhaiguan guard Qinglong!" The guard replied.

"Qinglong?!" Naturally, Dorgon knew about the Green Dragon. The last time he attacked Jinzhou, he almost died at the hands of this young man, and when he thought about it, he was still a little afraid, even if he heard that he was the only one, Dolgon's eyes began to wander a little.

Hearing Qinglong, Ning Er felt a pain in her heart, she couldn't believe that her letter didn't have any effect on Qinglong, and even her ninth elder brother's funeral came to disturb the situation. Ning Er suddenly felt that her heart was as cold as this winter snow.

"Let's go! It's too late! Dolgon urged, this is only a few miles away from Jinzhou, and it is indeed far from Shengjing. If Jinzhou is not protected, no one here will be able to escape, and even Huang Taiji may have to die a second time. Dolgon couldn't take this risk, he had already seen Zhu Qing's ability to lead a thousand people to defeat him and lead tens of thousands of people.

Ning'er had no choice but to hold back tears and escort Xiaozhuang and his party back to the palace.

Dolgon led a thousand guards to Jinzhou. Unexpectedly, when I arrived in Jinzhou, there was infighting among the Ming army under the city gate!

Zhu Qing kidnapped Liu Tam!

"Green Dragon! Do you know what you're doing? You are a traitor! Liu Tamping shouted.

"I don't care what it is. As long as I, Qinglong, am here today, I don't allow you to disturb the funeral of the Qing Emperor! Zhu Qing, as a Jinyi guard, said such a thing at this time, and he didn't feel weak at all.

"You're ......!" Liu Thong wanted to resist, but unexpectedly Zhu Qing pressed the handle of the knife, and the knife edge slashed Liu Thong's neck.

"Good! You wait for me! See if I go back and don't play you to Wu Dashuai! Liu Tamping was unconvinced!

"I'll wait, and by the way, tell him that if you want to go back to General Hu Wei, let him come to Shanhaiguan in person! Hum! Zhu Qing said, putting away the machete.

"Let's go! Back to Ningyuan! Liu Tam ordered angrily and led 5,000 soldiers and horses to return the same way.

Standing on the city gate, Dolgon clasped his fists at Zhu Qing and shouted, "Qinglong! Great grace is not grateful. I owe you a favor! ”

"Humph! It's not that I owe it, it's that I owe it! 'Don't attack you with death', I won't beat you, just today. Zhu Qing said, turned the horse's head, and left Jinzhou.

Dolgon stood on the city gate, looked at Zhu Qing's back, and sighed deeply, "I think I know why the Qing army can't enter the customs for a long time." ”
